The UK’s biggest and best textile craft show, The Knitting & Stitching Show, is set to return to Northern Ireland in 2025, taking place at the Eikon Exhibition Centre, Lisburn, from 13th – 16th November 2025. 

Tourism Northern Ireland is set to host its highly anticipated Meet the Buyer 2025 event at the Eikon Exhibition Centre in Lisburn on March 27th and 28th, 2025. The flagship event serves as a premier platform for tourism businesses in Northern Ireland to engage with a pre-qualified group of international buyers from key global markets, providing unmatched opportunities for collaboration and growth.

Ulster Bank and the Royal Ulster Agriculture Society (RUAS) have kickstarted the countdown to the 156th Balmoral Show which will be held at the Eikon Exhibition Centre. 

In celebrating 10 years of the Eikon Exhibition Centre, we recognise the event organisers and staff whose dedication has made it Northern Ireland’s largest events venue. 

Nestled in the heart of Lisburn, the Eikon Exhibition Centre is a beacon of innovation and excellence in the events industry. Opened in 2015, this premier venue has redefined the standard for exhibitions, conferences, and large-scale gatherings in the region. As the centre celebrates its 10th anniversary, it’s an opportunity to reflect on its remarkable journey and the visionary leaders who spearheaded the transition from its original home at Kings Hall.
